SOLETO REVIEWS

Favourite restaurant in Southampton! We go here often and never leave disappointed. We love the food and the staff, they are always polite and chatty… never make us feel rushed. A great wine selection. We also took 16 of our staff here for a dinner party and they all loved it. Great aesthetic and lovely cosy vibe. The chef always comes out for a chat. Will be back soon.

Delicious food in this cosy restaurant. Waitress was very friendly. We had saltimbocca and ravioli funghi. The portions look a little small but there's enough to fill your tummy and have some space for dessert. Recommended.

What a great place. We live in Winchester and have nothing as good as this, great food and our waitress Nina was amazing and we chatted to the chef George who is so passionate about his food. We will definitely come back.

SEASHELLS LOUNGE BAR & RESTAURANT REVIEWS

We stumbled across this place during a visit to the area. Up the stairs to an open bar area, with dining at the back. Views across the water and a smoking veranda. The staff are friendly and attentive. A small but well put together menu. The food was out promptly and was to a very reasonable standard. The beef burger could have done with a touch more seasoning, but we had no complaints. All round a nice experience. We would definitely come back.

Lovely little find in Hythe. Waitress was so accommodating and went above and beyond for my food allergies. Fab vegan menu and choices. Great value food with lovely views.

Never been here for food before I had the filleted sea bass it was delicious . So definitely recommend this place.

THE JETTY REVIEWS

My friend and I popped in here tonight on a whim for dinner and we were not disappointed! Ross, Klaudia and the team were so friendly and welcoming from the beginning. We ordered a couple of cocktails and they were just as ashetically pleasing as they were tasty! Levi the bartender really made them 10/10. We ordered the Mini Gastro tasting menu which consisted of 5 courses. Each one was presented so well and tasted incredible. Amazing food and impeccable service. We will definitely be returning.

We had a wonderful experience at the Jetty Bar. The whole bar team was friendly and knowledgeable about every kind of cocktail imaginable. Gabriel, the French bartender went over and above to make sure we had the best conversation and service. Until next time.

Superb as per usual. Our first time on the lunch menu and it was fantastic for the price! Hana is just the best waitress. We often just come for drinks of an evening we love it so much here.
